Szymanski ( Jury Duty ) helmed the film from a script by Laura Solon. Beau Bauman produces for Good One Productions, with Solon and Mark Moran executive producing. First-look images from the project can be seen above and below.

Diaz, who is known for such movies as There’s Something About Mary and Charlie’s Angels , took a 10-year break from lead acting roles before returning to the craft to star in Netflix’s 2024 feature Back in Action , opposite Jamie Foxx.

“I don’t know how I view it. It’s hard to say,” the actress told Empire at that time about her outlook on continuing her career. “If I say it then it becomes this thing. I reserve the right to say no to doing a movie ever again, and I reserve the right to say yes if I decide to. I’m not defining anything. I’m just open to whatever makes sense for me and my family at any given moment.”
